Re: Why Do we *ship* to bots?

Trust me, everyone's gone through this. The task becomes how well you handle being dropped into an arena full of robots and buttons and helpful people.

I'd advise you to read up on last year's rules. There is no guarantee that these rules will remain the same next year, but FIRST seems to keep most of the safety and don't-break-the-field rules the same. Just remember to read the 2005 manual!

Rule #1: Do not die. Rule #2: Be respectful. Rule #3: Be safe. Rule #4: Follow the handbook.
